Lisa Gastoni (born 28 July 1935 in Alassio, Province of Savona) is an Italian film actress.

Biography

Daughter of an Italian father and an Irish mother, Gastoni moved to England after World War II and there began her film and modeling career. She appeared in various B movies throughout the 1950s, as well as co-starring as Giulia in the Sapphire Films TV series The Four Just Men (1959) for ITV.

Gastoni returned to Italy in the 1960s, at first appearing in sword-and-sandal and swashbuckler films, but eventually gaining the attention of respected directors. The turning point in her film career was her role in Grazie, zia by Salvatore Samperi. This would set the tone for the roles she would play for the next decade; bourgeois women who were seductive yet sexually frustrated, cruel and arrogant yet sad and sympathetic, manipulating the people around them to try and fill the emptiness in their own lives.

After 1979, she retired from acting for over 20 years, focusing on painting and writing. She returned to the screen with an appearance in the film Cuore Sacro.

Traumatized when they were children, her by erotic effusions of her parents, him by a repulsive experience of sexual initiation built by the fathers, Elli has become nymphomaniac, Marco homosexual. Perhaps to find a way out from their deviations, perhaps to support each other, the two are married. The marriage, however, does not solve their problems, nor will be facilitated by the unexpected return of George, the English antiquarian already "friend" of Mark, who now struggle to snatch Elli. Nuanced, for the woman, the encounter with a solitary writer who could heal; rejected, by Marco, one last chance for salvation, broke the tragedy: the professor kills the girl who loves him and then throws himself from a tower, under the eyes of Elli and George.
